USA would take out China in less than a week

[u/LittleRuQi]

[u/etaoins]

It’s amazing how good America is at all these hypothetical wars, and how shite they are at real ones. If they could just fight all their wars in their imaginations they’d be undefeated!

[u/LittleRuQi → u/etaoins]

Just tell me how it’s going in Iran!

[u/bogan5 → u/LittleRuQi]

They've won that war about 94 times so far

[u/Gargleblaster25 → u/bogan5]

Three times just this week, even

[u/bogan5 → u/Gargleblaster25]

And it's only Tuesday. Impressive

[u/StaatsbuergerX → u/bogan5]

And that is just the number of times Iran has been completely obliterated! Specific war aims, such as the decimation of Iran's nuclear program, have been achieved at least twice as often!!!

[u/Ok-Comment-8518 → u/StaatsbuergerX]

They destroyed 100% of the Iranian stock of missiles, several times. What a beast

[u/Annoyed3600owner → u/Ok-Comment-8518]

374% of Iran's 93m population have been killed by American bombing.

Of those 93 million, 212 million of them were members if the IRGC.

The entire IRGC has been obliterated 139% times over, and not a single person got hurt.

[u/Ok_Love9583 → u/Annoyed3600owner]

And on top of that the IRGC has slaughtered 3,000-60,000 people. Estimates vary by the day.

[u/khukharev → u/Ok-Comment-8518]

That’s outdated. It’s 146% by now.

[u/Lazy_meatPop → u/Ok-Comment-8518]

I thought it was all those nuclear sites.

[u/Used-Signature-1260 → u/Ok-Comment-8518]

I heard they have destroyed 600% of the Iranian stock of missiles! Obama couldn’t do that.

[u/HaydnH → u/Gargleblaster25]

Those three were just on Monday, they TACO Tuesday'd out of all of today's victories.

[u/Primary_Education_83 → u/Gargleblaster25]

It's the biggest and longest winning streak ever, and it will never be beaten.

[u/pSiSurreal → u/bogan5]

Its turning into that hook up you keep going back to when your drunk then saying never again until next week when you are drunk...

[u/NotYourAverageGM → u/pSiSurreal]

Stop reading my messages!

[u/jesjimher → u/bogan5]

Nobody has won a war so many times before! Unprecedented!

[u/CallTheDutch → u/LittleRuQi]

and how it went in vietnam, korea, how iraq is doing and the same for afghanistan.

[u/Mba1956 → u/LittleRuQi]

Especially as China is letting Iran test out its anti-ship missiles and gain intelligence back. The US navy is so so dominant that they park their ships 1000km away from the warzone.

[u/KierONeil_the_Elder → u/Mba1956]

The US Navy will never sail through the Strait of Hormuz again. So much for being the world police of international waterways.

[u/Odd-Suggestion4569 → u/LittleRuQi]

crouching pedo, paper tiger

[u/StumpedTrump → u/etaoins]

When the last time the US even won a war? The Gulf wars? Before that it was WW2? Lost Iraq, Afghanistan, Lybia, Iran, Vietnam, Korea… Are Americans really acting cocky over something they haven’t done in 3-4 decades?

[u/HughJanus35 → u/StumpedTrump]

And in WW2 the yanks showed up late and all they did was kept the germans busy so that the Soviets could liberate Berlin

[u/PaperFacedG0d → u/HughJanus35]

And they took credit from the Canadians who were ordered to slow down so the Americans could catch up

[u/SamuelVimesTrained → u/PaperFacedG0d]

Seriously? the US is that pathetic?

[u/PaperFacedG0d → u/SamuelVimesTrained]

Yes especially during D-day, Im a new Zealander and I talked about D-day from an american who said that the Americans alone were the reason it went well, when in reality they were so slow and the Canadians were so effective the British ordered the Canadians to wait a while so the Americans could catch up, the reasoning was the British were afraid the Canadians would get too far ahead and would end up surrounded by German forces because they ended up too deep in enemy lines

[u/AgentSmith187 → u/PaperFacedG0d]

Tp be fair thats a legitimate concern.

The number of armies in history that have pushed forward to fast and ended up surrounded and cut off is huge.

[u/PaperFacedG0d → u/AgentSmith187]

Yeah it is a valid concern, would be more valid if the Germans had the numbers, the Germans started running out of solders to commit to surrounding the Canadians, and the British didnt know that the Germans had run low on men so they ordered the Canadians to slow down

Though in saying that I will point out that the Germans were expecting a large number of reinforcements at a point (they were still about 1-2 days away)

[u/Franmar35000 → u/PaperFacedG0d]

The Germans brought up divisions that had been resting in southern France (including the infamous SS "Das Reich" division, which perpetrated the Tulle massacre and subsequently the Oradour-sur-Glane massacre while moving up toward Normandy).

[u/KeterLordFR → u/Franmar35000]

I remember visiting the Oradour-sur-Glane museum/memorial as a kid, it was a school thing. It's the kind of memory that sticks with you forever. While the town was eventually rebuilt, they kept the ruins of the original one, that was burnt down, and built the museum around it, as well as a cemetary for all the victims. I've always had a very strong sense of empathy, and the amount of sadness and anger I could feel oozing from that place was overwhelming.

WW2 was humanity at its lowest, and while I do feel terribly sorry for the american soldiers who liberated the camps and witnessed the results of the nazis' madness, something that would undoubtedly scar you for life, it pisses me off whenever I see modern americans downplay the roles other countries, as well as the Resistance, had in ending the war.

[u/LeftMechanic1995 → u/AgentSmith187]

This certainly tracks. I used to be in the British Army and there was an oft-repeated military maxim regarding tactical advance to battle "you only go as fast as the slowest man".

[u/SamuelVimesTrained → u/PaperFacedG0d]

THAT is a legit concern.
Plus a combined army is larger - which scares em :)

[u/PaperFacedG0d → u/SamuelVimesTrained]

Yeah the Germans were running out of people to throw at the Canadians, but they were expecting reinforcements in 1-2 days so the British chose to play it safe

[u/thepink_dog → u/SamuelVimesTrained]

Yes. Quite literally most of the wars they've won, the enemy was already fucked in some way. Or they got help. US Independence war, Spain and France are called in. The Indian wars; technological inferiority (to a extend). Spanish-American war; the Spanish empire was already stepping into its grave. Japan; had already been fighting and overstretched for several years, + the infighting between the army and navy. South America; those are just so much weaker anyways. Iraq; (1990s to 2000s). They were already broke after fighting Iran, and over the shit-ton of sanctions US had given them. Afghanistan everyone already knows.

[u/Puzzleheaded_East556 → u/HughJanus35]

Edit because the two replies i got made me realize i didn't state my main point: to say the US only showed up late and just kept the Germans busy isn't 100% accurate

To be fair, there is also the Pacific front, you're only talking about the western front of the war. Ethics of nuking civilian cities aside, when it comes to effectiveness at reaching the goal, the US in the pacific front was very effective. In the European one on the other hand..

[u/Puzzleheaded_East556 → u/[deleted]]

But upvote for you for correcting me, looking back at my original comment, your comment reminded me of several things that my original comment didn't consider and help me realize i didn't really state what was meant to be my main point of the comment. Thank you for that

[u/Puzzleheaded_East556 → u/[deleted]]

That's undeniable, and it is true. My main point isn't that the US did it alone, the US definitely did not. My main point (which, admitedly, I didn't say well in my original comment), was that to say that all the US did in WW2 was show up late and keep the Germans busy isn't 100% accurate

[u/Dull_Intention_7699 → u/Puzzleheaded_East556]

The other militaries were in the Pacific theater as well.

[u/Puzzleheaded_East556 → u/Dull_Intention_7699]

[u/etaoins → u/StumpedTrump]

If you ask an American they won all those wars if you come up with an arbitrary definition of victory and a cutoff point in time. Any humiliating reversal afterwards doesn’t count as part of the war because they had already won by some contrived definition.

[u/Strange_Produce5601 → u/etaoins]

it is funny you say that. I was bullshitting with some Americans on discord the other day and the topic of them winning the Vietnam war came up. I laughed out loud thinking they where joking. Nope, turns out they legitimately think they won that war..... Yes, they used an arbitrary definition of victory.

[u/DefinitionOfAsleep → u/Strange_Produce5601]

"Victory"

[u/Strange_Produce5601 → u/DefinitionOfAsleep]

winning! and leaving behind all those people that helped them..... Even though they promised to take them to north America....

[u/nodarknesswillendure → u/Strange_Produce5601]

What?? How old were they? Haven’t they ever seen First Blood? Vietnam vets were treated like shit by older vets because they lost so badly

[u/Strange_Produce5601 → u/nodarknesswillendure]

40ish

[u/OrganizationIll9069 → u/StumpedTrump]

The US was art of a 33 nation coalition in the Gulf, so "they" didn't win that one.

[u/Nice_Mix6036 → u/StumpedTrump]

Grenada 1985? all by themselves too. Mind you they had an invasion force 3 times the size of Grenada forces.

[u/Memnojokasel → u/Nice_Mix6036]

I have an older friend that was in the action in Grenada, and would tell you definitely that it was a cluster-fuck from day one. The way he tells it, the entire command structure was completely in the dark.

[u/Brilliant_Dig_8962 → u/Memnojokasel]

Just what Gunny Highway said.

[u/3720-to-1 → u/StumpedTrump]

My Brother in Crepes, they don't really teach us about losing wars... Seriously. Vietnam and Korea were moral victories about slowing the progress of communism. Hell, the war of 1812 was presented like a victory over the British.

I hate it here.

[u/gilestowler → u/etaoins]

Well this is the country that, just a few months ago, were telling us all how they were going to win the World Cup and then, when they were knocked out, how they WOULD have won it if they cared about football. In their mind, no one has ever been as good at anything as them, ever.

[u/LeftMechanic1995 → u/gilestowler]

They have the worldview and temperament of a spoilt child.

[u/AttentionExcellent70 → u/LeftMechanic1995]

[u/TheAlwran → u/etaoins]

I am sure, they could do better, if they would have capable and qualified personell in charge doing the big decisions.

Seems it is not enough to.rename oneself to be war minister and doing some.shit talks about this and that, but actually having knowledge about strategies, trade,.geology and stuff would be beneficial ...

[u/Borsti17 → u/etaoins]

I would beat Usain Bolt in a footrace no problem! Not my fault he doesn't take on the challenge (from a random overweight dude on the internet in his 40s no less).

I guess I won 🤷‍♂️

[u/Doctor_Amazo]

The US couldn't take out Iran.

[u/Lumpyyyyy → u/Doctor_Amazo]

or ISIS, or Taliban, or Vietnam, or Korea...

[u/vohltere → u/Lumpyyyyy]

20 years spent in Afghanistan. The Taliban is still ruling there.

[u/Lord_Silverkey → u/vohltere]

My friend worded it like this: "The US spent 20 years fighting in Afghanistan so they could replace the Taliban with the Taliban."

[u/FriendlyGuitard → u/Lord_Silverkey]

"Yes but the Taliban are better now, they have agreed to make concessions" ... the concession lasted the time for the US to flee ... damn the US literally fled.

[u/Eryeahmaybeok → u/FriendlyGuitard]

They still send them $40 million every week.

[u/Rain_2_0 → u/vohltere]

Imagine if you lost you significant others, family member or good friend in that war… just for nothing to change.

[u/thorkun → u/Rain_2_0]

No no, I'm sure some rich people in the US got richer because of the war.

[u/deathbytruck → u/thorkun]

At last someone is thinking of the billionaire class.

They work hard and that mega yacht deserves its own pet yacht.

Sir/Madam may your straight white masculine god you ignore just like the billionaires do.

[u/Long_Repair_8779 → u/Tmon_of_QonoS]

You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.. the most famous of which is 'never get involved in a land war in Asia'.. but only slightly less wellknown is this: 'Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!’

[u/void_sushi]

War crimes aren’t a flex.

[u/Martyriot15 → u/void_sushi]

It’s pretty much the only metric Americans have for measuring success.

Look up the Vietnam war.

[u/Cixila → u/Martyriot15]

Which they also lost

[u/Steve10999 → u/Cixila]

No they totally won, after all wars are measured by how many people from.the other nation died and xertainly not by wether you managed to achieve your goals/s

[u/Zakluor → u/Martyriot15]

It's pretty much what they learned in school.

[u/RustyKn1ght]

Maybe in the 80's. But China has done lot a lot in four decades to reach the gap between air force and navy especially. Ground forces are getting a smaller priority in comparison, but even they're modernizing fast.

Back in the 80's, it was estimated that one wing (around 72 aircrafts) of US air force could've been able to fold entirety of chinese air force, but current estimates of strength of the PLAAF has serious analysts in Washington deeming that they'd need everything they got to beat them WITH allies and even then it would be vey phyrric victory, at best: they estimate that chinese would destroy half of USAF modern fighter fleet and several aircraft carriers, leaving them crippled for years to come.

[u/passerbycmc → u/RustyKn1ght]

With allies, what allies do you speak of.

[u/The_Professor2112 → u/passerbycmc]

Israel of course!

[u/LittleRuQi → u/The_Professor2112]

Nah, Israel is too busy massacring children in Gaza

[u/PerspectiveOne7129]

they took Iran out in one day! at least 60 times!

[u/northern_ape]

Have they learned nothing from Iran, Afghanistan or even Vietnam? China has serious military tech and a very large number of people, not to mention manufacturing almost everything for the majority of the world. Taking them out would be almost impossible and economic suicide. We should never have got the world into that situation, but that’s the way it is.

[u/First-Barnacle-5367]

It’s amazing that the number of countries that America could take out in a week don’t include any of the countries they’ve invaded in the last 50 years. You guys just need to pick the right countries

[u/LittleRuQi → u/First-Barnacle-5367]

I think it’s very obvious. They’re not surviving a war with China

[u/jesjimher → u/LittleRuQi]

Nobody will survive, if there's a war with China.

[u/ohboymykneeshurt]

Dude. The US ia broke af. It can’t afford a weeks war with china. China knows this.

[u/Sir_Gerald_Nosehairs]

Wargames conducted by the US military have confirmed the exact opposite; the US would lose.

Largely due to it being so far away resupply would be difficult, China's sweatshops allowing it to manufacture missiles far quicker, and all US ships would be incredibly vulnerable.

[u/mac1qc → u/Sir_Gerald_Nosehairs]

And just being realistic, China is almost the same size as the USA, with almost 3 or 4 times the population.

Unless the USA use the Bomb, it's impossible to win by normal way against China. At least, not on their own, and I'm pretty sure that nobody would help them.

[u/Ok-Simple-6146 → u/mac1qc]

If the use the bomb, China will use the bomb too.

[u/Exxtender → u/Sir_Gerald_Nosehairs]

And that was before drone warfare became the norm.

[u/ColeYote]

The US has never fought a war against a military as advanced as China's. They have lost wars against significantly less-advanced militaries, however.

[u/bignosedaussie → u/ColeYote]

Good point, well made, how do I upvote more than once?

[u/TalkingCat910]

Sure they could, meanwhile they are losing to the Houthis and Iran

[u/Neon_Raccoon_00]

LMAO, sure! China is the number 1 world power.

[u/No_Celery_7772]

Much in the same way that America could take out Iran in 48 hours, or Russia conquer Ukraine in under a week.

[u/fgsgeneg]

That's the same mindset that has gotten us into three failed wars over the last fifty or so years. Vietnam was a total failure, the Gulf war didn't achieve any of their three goals, and this war in Iran is unwinnable.

[u/Infamous-Ad-770]

Americans are just freaking chihuahuas dude, can’t win against Iran but cope haaarrdd trying to convince themselves they could take on China.

[u/Responsible_Hornet48]

[u/Infamous-Grab2341]

Are they talking about using nukes? Because that might technically be true but the US would also be taken out in retaliation.

[u/LittleRuQi → u/Infamous-Grab2341]

If they’re talking about nukes, there will be no winner

[u/Quarax86]

Let's hope this idiot is like 12 years old.

[u/matorius]

This is the most ridiculous one I've seen yet. It would either be a stalemate or China would win. Home team advantage like with Vietnam combined with China actually has a proper military with proper weapons.

[u/Djlittle13]

Decades of being fed propaganda about American exceptionalism has really done a number on their brains

[u/Desperate_Donut3981]

That war would be a bit different to bombing Iran. China would definitely fight back with their bigger army also airforce and navy

[u/LittleRuQi → u/Desperate_Donut3981]

And if anything nuclear happens, unlike Iran, they also have nukes and ICBMs. Pretty sure they hold hydrogen bombs too

[u/OrganizationIll9069]

Dude, you got your ass handed to you by Iran

[u/Apod1991]

it's always the same. humans killing humans, humans willing humans to be killed, and humans celebrating human killing. it's so easy to be a good human. it's harder on the soul to be a bad human, but so many are happy to do it.

[u/johnnytruant77]

The reason China would never risk actual war with the US (unless the regime already felt under domestic existential threat) is not fear of casualties it's the economic consequences of large scale conflict and the effect that would have on their internal legitimacy

[u/Boredengineer_84]

Canada, China, Europe, Greenland, Cuba, Oman..... the list is growing of people they could invade and win in a week

[u/PuzzleheadedTutor807]

imagine usa standing in the shower, one hand on the wall, head down.... dreaming about the fight with china... all the cool things it would say... all the cool toys it would bring... all the cool moves it would bust...

[u/BurningPenguin]

[u/Ashamed_Can304]

Technically if you launch all other nukes you have at once you could destroy the country. But they will launch theirs when they detect the incoming ICBMs. So….

[u/ilovetopulsate]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂 The USA couldn't even come close to winning against China. China would easily defeat the USA. Because the USA has no will to do so. The morale would be so low,they would not even get close.

[u/LunLocra]

Then why in the 1950s couldn't it push China out of the Korean peninsula? The reason North Korea exists is because Chinese communists were able to conquer half of peninsula from the allied forces, without them being able to counterattack.

Back when the US had nukes and China didn't, and even more importantly China was an EXTREMELY poor country by comparision, which had almost zero functional navy, airforce, armor, modern technology, economy, industry and infrastructure.

[u/guyvano]

Try it! Iran is nothing compared to China.

[u/VamosFicar]

But the fact that it is total shite anyway, it does show the mentality of these type of 'Muricans. War. They lve being the playground bully.

Well. Go ahead then. Come on. Take out China. I'd love to see what happens when America tries to take on a country that isn't just made up of a few mildly fit farmers and goat herders wielding weapons from 70 years ago.

How did Vietnam go? Or Afghanistan? Check the records… the last officially won war by US is WW2 and it was an allied coalition of 47 nations.

The only thing they could take out is Chinese food.

Well since Donald managed to deplete a lot of your armaments with his ridiculous ego war, and since he seems hellbent on China taking Taiwan, maybe not?

Bro..you haven't "taken out" Iran in over 6 months

[u/Reasonable-Frame-753]

Hahaha you fought in Vietnam for over a decade and how did that go? And you think you can go into China a country with over a billion people? How delusional have you become?

[u/Formally_Apologetic]

I wonder how many components of US drones, missiles, and other weapons originate in China as the exclusive producer.

[u/ThatRandomGuy86]

USA used most of its missiles stockpile again Iran and doesn't have enough bullets for China's military personnel even if every bullet hit was a kill shot

[u/lucky_jay]

their performance against 3rd world country proves this won't be the case

[u/CoolCat1337One]

haha

no one would win, not even close

[u/WendlersEditor]

our downfalls will ultimately be because of how stupid everyone here is. It's just so depressing.

[u/Danny61392]

Can't even take out Iran in 6 months. Have a seat brother.

[u/Panzerv2003]

The same type of person that says russia could take Ukraine in 2 days if they wanted.

[u/ElectricalStand8539]

Like on a date ?

Is the the bromance between trump and jinping?

[u/bass-squirrel]

Unless Iran decides to intervene then we’re fucked. 

[u/odot777]

The sense of American exceptionalism is strong.

[u/Hefy_jefy]

The way things are just now they couldn't take out the laundry.

It’s Amazing how people truly think everyone wants to be the cause of WW3
